Overview
A pulsatile flow pattern with retrograde or reversed flow during systole is associated with impaired myocardial perfusion and worse cardiovascular outcome which can be used for risk stratification on coronary angiography.
Definition
Pulsatile flow is defined as flow reversal with intermttent cessation of antegrade contrast-dye motion or frank reversal of contrast-dye motion during systole.[1] It is coded as yes (present) or no (absent).
Clinical Significance
- Pulsatile flow pattern can be considered as a marker of heightened microvascular resistance. It may also be observed in other conditions such as ventricular hypertrophy. Patients with TIMI flow grade 2 were shown to have a greater incidence of pulsatile flow compared to those with TIMI flow grade 3.[2]
- The presence of pulsatile pattern in the infarct related artery is reported to be associated with an increased incidence of pulsatile flow in nonculprit arteries and also with a slower nonculprit flow.[3]
- In a pooled retrospective cohort study on patients with acute myocardial infarction, a pulsatile pattern in epicardial flow was associated with higher corrected TIMI frame counts (CTFC), lower TIMI myocardial perfusion grades (TMPG), less complete ST-segment resolution, and elevated risk of reinfarction and death at 30 days.[1]
